### @AMPX — Confirmed — from the annual filing and earnings call
China's new export controls on lithium-ion batteries, materials, and equipment sit suspended until at least November 2026. For those of us keeping score: the drone supply chain's U.S.-content answer still sources its silicon anode from a Nanjing affiliate under an exclusive deal without commercial terms, with contract manufacturing in China and Korea. An $18.1 million DIU contract requires qualifying non-China sources. We're racing to become the domestic battery we're marketed as. That's okay.
